This page aims at helping users of Haskell that want to present the language, listing resources, sketching ideas, providing good examples etc.
1 A possible presentation
If you are going to give a presentation on Haskell, consider the following topics to be included in your talk:
- Introduce functional programming, stressing the declarative style of functional languages, the functions-as-values concept, the possibility of expressing what you want to achieve instead of concentrating on specifying how to get it, and so on.
2 General Resources
- Why Haskell Matters
- Why I Hate Advocacy by Mark-Jason Dominus
- Introduction contains a bit of advocacy.
